LUCAS’ POV.

His footsteps approached my door hastily.

“Where the hell did you put my wife!?” He asked, and Emily’s eyes went wide with fear. She rolled off me, and immediately snatched her T-shirt from the bed.

She made for the bathroom at first, but changed her mind as John’s footsteps got dangerously near. Her feet went in the opposite direction, and she hid behind the drapes.

I on the other hand, took my shirt, and put it on. I had just sat on the bed when my door was pushed open.

“You should knock.” I said, in a low rumbling voice.

“Where is Emily? Where the hell did you guys go to?” He asked, angrily.

I got up, and walked towards him, digging my hands into my pockets. Through my side-eye, I caught movement behind the drapes, and leaned in closer to John to distract him.

“Is that beer I smell on you? Isn’t it way too early to be drinking?” I asked, moving backwards, as he hit me with beer breath as each word tumbled out of his mouth.

    140LUCAS’ POV.“You know, I met Katie today.” Emily began, when we met at the garden late at night.“Katie?”“She quit.” Emily replied, looking at me.“Why? She’s been working with John for years. Something really terrible must have happened for her to leave him. It must have been a tough decision.”“Yeah. John tricked her, and made her get the documents for the Alpha marriage. She didn’t know he had intended it for me because he lied to her saying it was for two friends who were in love. She got mad, and didn’t want to be the reason people’s lives are easily ruined by John.” She replied, and I actually felt proud of Katie.Due to John’s immaturity, Katie had actually taken care of him, cleaned up his mess, advised him, and had truly cared for him even though she didn’t love him romantically. She probably saw parts of him that no one else could. Katie was in the best position to know if John would change, and her leaving meant she knew it was all over, and John wouldn’t change.“What

    139JOHN’S POV.That day, two men had come with their documents, wanting to apply for the post of a personal assistant, which Katie had left open. Seeing them, and noticing their little faults here and there, only made me miss Katie all the more. She was efficient in all the ways one could imagine. She always had an answer prepared for every question.In some ways, she had become a friend, and her absence made me feel completely alone—like there was no one on my side.Due to the two men having different faults, I hired them both, so they could complement each other. What the first one didn’t have, the second could make up for it.But I had to agree that both of them were good at picking drinks. I had told them I needed something really strong, and they provided just what I needed.I needed to think hard on my next move. Emily seemed to be completely drawn to Lucas. She was fine with me not talking to her, fine with us not crossing paths, even when she didn’t see me for a whole day, I

    138EMILY’S POV.When my eyelids fluttered open, I could see the brown ceiling. Great.I was home, and no longer in the hospital. Next to me was my window, and it was open, bringing in a cool breeze.I turned my head, and saw Lucas next to me, his head propped on his elbow, as he stared at me. His features were as handsome as ever. Eyes as green as the forest leaves, hair adorably soft and brown, and lips completely seductive.“You fainted. Right outside the hospital.” He said, and I blinked.“I know. I was feeling so weak, and the sun just… it just became too bright, and too hot for me.” I replied, and he raised a brow.“Okay, I can accept that you were feeling a little weak, but why were you in the hospital?” He asked, and I gave a little smile.“I went there for a checkup.”“Checkup?” He asked, although he seemed like he didn’t want to believe it.“Yes, I felt stressed, and just decided to check up on myself. We’re always told to go to the doctor if we’re not feeling ourselves.”“A

    137LUCAS’ POV.My face morphed into a more serious one, and I leaned backwards to let him know that I was firm on it. Besides, it couldn’t be called an affair, since John’s greedy act couldn’t be called a marriage either.A marriage was between two willing parties, who wanted to spend forever together, and an affair was what happened when one or both lovers had a legitimate lover.“It’s not an affair.” I said, coolly. At that point, I couldn’t leave Emily for anything. The love between us was something John could never hope to provide. Tearing us apart would be dooming two individuals.“You’re in love with a married woman, and I don’t know what you’re probably doing with her, but you should stop. If this gets out somehow, you will suffer the most. You will take a huge hit, Granger or not. An affair doesn’t look good on you. No, not with your reputation. Aside from that, you shouldn’t forget the kind of marriage contract she signed. It is the Alpha Marriage for crying out loud. Do you

    136EMILY’S POV.I returned to my room, and sat on my bed. My foot began to move restlessly, while my thumb stayed in my mouth. Despite being with Lucas, I hated the fact that I was still married to John, and was therefore stuck with him. If only there was a way to break free from him completely.But then, even with my rage, I could still feel my heart thundering. What would have happened if he’d caught us? What would he say? What exactly would happen?When I had heard his voice, it felt like my heart was going to leap out of my chest. My knees had felt wobbly, and my head had gone all muddy. I couldn’t even think well.Even while hiding behind the drapes, it was a fight not to move, and cause them to shake.With that, I got up from the bed, and took the chair in front of my desk. Bending slightly, I took out my sketchbook from a drawer, and placed it on the table.“He’s crazy if he thinks I’m his wife. He’s completely crazy. Damn him.” I spat, and began to sketch designs into the boo
